As you can see in the video below, Mike and Maria Kanellis sat down Renee Young to discuss Mike’s painkiller addiction. Mike noted that his addiction was something that he kept a secret from his friends and family and it spiraled out of control during the last year and a half.

Mike said that he dislocated his kneecap about 4 years ago. He broke a rib before he went on a tour of Japan and he was able to get through the pain after being prescribed stronger meds.

For anyone out there dealing with similar issues, Mike wants them to know that it’s ok to talk about it and if he can get clean then anyone can.
